Algorithms are discrete operations done in a sequence, they are typically blind to ideas or personal opinions and are used for data processing, filtering, or calculations. Facial recognition algorithms are typically what you would call a complex algorithm as it uses conditions based on what the camera captures to make decisions as to where the face of said person is, if it is a person, are they smiling? What are their physical traits? Do they have white, brown, or dark skin, to adjust the contrast level for a good photo.

Artificial intelligence models are not math driven. They are language models, trained through machine learning and operating on a transformer architecture. Not only do they not replicate the reasoning a human (they predict the probability of action based on statistics of choices of others) and are most definitely going to be used to influence choices and opinions, not in an educational manner but in coercive and controlling manner. And it will become very hard to understand what AI produced propaganda will become. Even scarier though to me, is that it will be even harder to understand the effects of AI use, since all political actions have a direct effects which are often easy to predict, but they also cause these “ripple effects” which are the more dangerous side of politics and these ripple effects caused by AI use in politics will be impossible to predict for me, you and the AIs due to their early stage.

Meanwhile I, systems engineer wonders why the IT dude called himself an “engineer”

How the hell are ontarians happy with their mob boss MP? Everytime I hear of the ford family at this point it’s like a new jersey shore episode.

There are plenty of other events like flight 655 which was a passenger flight from Tehran in the 90s which got shot down by a US navy warship for no reason. 300 innocent people died because of a miscommunicated order by the navy personel.

To add something; I like to think of Hegel in those moment and the master/servant dialectic,simply; two consciousness find themselves in a shared space. Since they exist for themselves in that first moment and are encountering a plurality for the first time, they enter a conflict. One wins, the other loses and both establish different states of self-consciousness due to this.

The loser becomes the servant, has to think of himself and his duty to the master, and finds meaning and recognition in the master’s eyes. The master does not think of the servant’s thoughts, only his own. The servant in the eyes of the master gains meaning, he can revolt, improve, love or hate, whilst the master is not seen, he only is, and this means his self-conception is not anchored, thus the master cannot reach self-consciousness but his servant can as he experiences a higher authority.

In practical scenarios, this is what explains in my eyes the hubris of the powerful and the optimism of the miserable. The tyrant punishes through anger, because he cannot gain any satisfaction from his state, whilst the one in servitude learns through his opression what resilience is, finds internal freedom and liberation by experiencing the worst. This really resonates with the psychotic crisis/mania the US states are going through right now and the strange self-aware calm the Iranians show whilst being in the most vulnerable position.

Well if you ever land in jail, remember you ve got another hiding place… Works great to smuggle drugs or buttplugs.

Forgot to also add they killed Mohamed Mozadegh, the first democratically elected president of iran in 1953, a socialist and instead placed the Shah with the help of the british crown and the US gov, If you wonder why Iran has it for europe and the US, this is the tip of the iceberg of why. Plenty of fucked up shit happened later as well.

Quotes to mean it’s what he s whispering to our ear.

“Do you believe in israel’s right to defend itself?”

Aunt clara can’t conspiracy theory the oil and gas industry?!?!

British petroleum invented the carbon footprint and climate change denialism but aunt clara want to talk about little simon’s gender…

What most people call “algorithms” are not algorithms, artificial intelligences have replaced math formulas to back the recommendations your phone makes to you. Welcome to techno-feudalism!

Just like the luddites.

But how will we resurrect the great israel?

The queen of another country is on our currency and our economy was really the economy of our scumbag neighbor. And to top it off we re a 30 million people population occupying the second largest piece of land on earth (that we got through a genocide). That does not sound like a country, rather a strategic nightmare.

Hong kong has no moral role to play as a british crown territory or pro west territory and it has nothing to do with “'merican freedom”… Serving yourself this US hegemonic propaganda is sick, first we threw ukraine in the fire to bring a nato base closer to russia on it’s soil and millions died as a result (because russia and ukraine signed treaties over this being an act of war, cbc doesn t talk about that tho). And now we’re playing the same game with china to hold onto hong kong and taiwan as Nato serving territories?

After what the UK did to china in the opium wars (and the century of shame) and breaking the territory apart, it has more than enough historical right to claim back taiwan and hong kong.

Did Ford legalize online gambling or something? Because I (quebec…) keep guetting ads for CasinodaysJeux (french version of casinoday, a shit gambling site) which does not accept money, but being redirected to casinoday.com.

Risk; Peter Thiel guetting hard because he’s been wanting to show us his antichrist outfit.

Racially confused quebecois believe they are native to quebec, and tend to be very xenophobic. Pair that with conservative medias complaining about migrants, postmodern globalist chaos and a crumbling economy, you get racist boomers in quebec hiking up police spendings and asking for heightened surveillance… It’s only going to get worse imo.

Building genocide weapons on a genocidal land, what a surprise!
